Romans 9:23-25
1599 Geneva Bible
23 And that he might declare the [a]riches of his glory upon the vessels of mercy, which he hath prepared unto glory?
24 [b]Even us whom he hath called, not of the [c]Jews only, but also of the Gentiles.
25 [d]As he saith also in Hosea, (A)I will call them, My people, which were not my people: and her, Beloved, which was not beloved.

- Romans 9:23 The unmeasurable and marvelous greatness.
- Romans 9:24 Having established the doctrine of the eternal predestination of God on both parts: that is, as well of the reprobate, as of the elect, he cometh now to show the use of it, teaching us that we ought not to seek the testimony of it in the secret counsel of God, but by the vocation which is made manifest and set forth in the Church, propounding unto us the example of the Jews and Gentiles, that the doctrine may be better perceived.
- Romans 9:24 He saith not that all and every one of the Jews are called, but some of the Jews, and some of the Gentiles.
- Romans 9:25 Our vocation or calling is free and of grace, even as our predestination is: and therefore there is no cause why either our own unworthiness, or the unworthiness of our ancestors should cause us to think that we are not the elect and chosen of God, if we be called of him, and so embrace through faith the salvation that is offered us.
